I have some TopCad for an IW02. They seems to run just fine.

How far off are we talkin' Betty?

way too much for fun. the rears would wobble in and out a good 2 - 3mm (nearly 1/8"). i tried everything, alloy and stock axles, shims, filing.
the front rims were better but still wobbly.

they were also bad enough to effect handling, it was more skittery and unstable with them on compared to new plastic rims spun inside out. there's a review here:

maybe i got a dud batch but they're just pretty looking junk to me now

my friend has some rs ones and i think i am gonna have to go get some of the rs ones or topcads cuz they spin so true and roll perfect. the extra sprung wight helps it to.

Your typing. Not your statement.

None of that AOL BS. Spell words, capitalzation, grammer.
